Subreddit rules check

Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
From the rules · Flair every post; linking to files hosted outside GitHub/NexusMods or other trusted sources (especially dodgy EXEs) can be grounds for instant ban.
Links
No explicit link policy. Default to no URL: link-plus-young-account is one of the most common automated removal patterns on Reddit.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: question, showcase, discussion
Headline = game or hardware + what you did/want (e.g., “WIP: GhostCoop overlay for single‑player games”). Write in first person for projects/showcases and as a clear question for help requests. Keep body concise: short description, steps/troubleshooting, and GitHub/NexusMods links or images. Tone: technical and helpful. Upvotes go to working mods, useful tools, clear how‑tos; posts with untrusted download links or off‑topic content get removed.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked July 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/modding's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
